There's a mountain and it's mighty highYou cannot see the top unless you flyThere's a molehill on proven groundAin't nowhere to go if you hang around

Everyone wants to sell what's already been soldEveryone wants to tell what's already been toldWhat's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mouldEven at the centre of the fire, there is coldAll that glitters, ain't goldAll that glitters, ain't gold

There's an ocean of despairThere are people living thereThey're unhappy each and every dayBut hell is not fashion so what you trying to say

Everyone wants to sell what's already been soldEveryone wants to tell what's already been toldWhat's the use of money if you ain't gonna break the mouldEven at the centre of the fire, there is coldAll that glitters, ain't goldAll that glitters, ain't gold

There's a lady 99 years oldIf she led a good life heaven takes her soulThat's the theory and if you don't wanna knowStep aside and make a way for those who want to go

Everyone wants to sell what's already been soldEveryone wants to tell what's already been toldWhat's the use of being young if you ain't gonna get oldEven at the centre of the fire, there is coldAll that glitters, ain't goldAll that glitters, ain't gold
